The Presidents Tour.

President CleYelaud's route has been
determined on in a general Wav, and it
is announced by authority from the
White House he will leave Washington
the last week of September ard go di-
rectly to st. Louis, probably by way of
Indianapolis. He will spend two days
al ST. Louis and go from there TO Chi
csgO, Milwaukee, Madison, St. Paul,
Minneapolis, Kansas City, Memphis,
Nashville and Atlanta, reaching the
latter place in time TO meet his engag-
ments for October Is. According to
this program, the President will prob
ably strike the South at Memphis, and
go thence to Nashville and Atlanta, re-
turning north through South Carolina,
North Carolina and Virginia. His
route will take him through fifteen or
twenty States. He will see and be seen
by more of the American people than
mas heretofore fallen to the los of any
President on an excursion through the
country.
There is always strong desire among
the American people to see a President,
and this is heightened when his course
has attracted personal interest and con-
idence, which is true OF Mr.. Cleveland.
HdrpCr'S Weekly this week in the course
of an article on the Presidents tour
says:
THE journey of the President, at the
time when many Republicans are trying
hard TO arouse the bitterness of section
al feeling aud to control politics by the
passions or the waI, will present sug-
geStive contrast. He represents the
new Union of common interests and
purposes and desires. and among them
the speediest practicable dismissal of the
controversies or the old Union. He
represents the desire of the country for
tranquil and honest government, watch
ed, as he says of himself. with ascTu-
tiny to which no recent President has
been submitted. He represents the
epoch of happy transition from the old
to the new, and the general feeling of
goodwill which is the prevailing senti-
ment of the country. 1t is unfortunate
that tie contrast should be invoked be-
tween the significance of such a repre-
sentative and that Ofthe sectional effort
Practically those who lead that effort
assert that the President is going into
the Southern States to prupitiate the
rebels, that he betrayed his sympathy
with treason ard rebellion 5y the order
to return the rebel fiIgs, that he has
called rebels into his cabinet, and that
he knows that he must owe his re cleo
tion to the votes of rebels. This is
wretched business from Intelligent Re-
publicans. Not one snch man who re-
sorts to such desperate appeals believes
that the Presiden. is a rebel, OF consorts
with rebels, or has anv more sympathy
with rebellion than General Sheridan,
or Mr.. Blaine or Governor Foraker.
OF the two, which will seem TO a
thoughtful American the surer guaran-
tee of national peace and prosperity, the
spirit which the President will repre-.
sent IN his tour, or that of those who
make national issue of the flag oIder %

What Else 1t Will Do.

The san prOclaims that 'the repeal of
the internal revenue will abolish the
surplus" So it would. But 1t would
do several other things as Well
The repeal of the iuIernal-revenue
system would show to the people that
the Democratic party has so radically
changed its principles and its sympathies
as to exempt luxUries and iudulgences
from taxation and leave the burden on
necesSaTies.
It would relieve whisky of a tax paid
by manufacturers and dealers, too small
To be subdiyided among consumers, and
leave a tax OF y cents pound on sugar,
II cents hundred on salt, 2. cents per
pound on rice, 81 per cent. on wooden
clothing, % per cent. on earthenware
and china. 81 10 100 percent. on window
glass ard 81 per cent. on iron and steel
msnutactuTes-all paid by the consum-
eTs of these articles. In other words,
the repeal Of the internal-revenue taxes
would relieve small and money making
class from taxation in order TO retain
war impOsts OF articles required and
used by every man, woman and child in
the United States.
1t would peIpetuaIe the war tariff,
and .hat is the animating purpose of
those who favor il. If this be Demo-
cracy, there seems TO be no good reason
why the Republicans should not be
called back 10 administer the system
which they built up and have stoutly
defended IN the interest of monopolies.

JOHN l.. SULLIVAN. the Boston slug
ger, who possesses more of the Instincts
of a brute than those Of a man, was pre-
sented with handsome gold belt stud
ded with diamonds in the principal
Theatre OF that city one night last week.
There was a large audience present in
cludipg the Mayor OF the city, Mr..
D'Brjen, and members Of the Common
Council. Councilman WhalI made the
presentation in = lengthy speech in
which he stated that the belt was a tes-
tlmouial OF the high regard IL which
the champion Of the prize ring was
held b. his fellow citizens of Bcs-
ton. sullivan, who weighs 23O pounds,
said in his reply to Whau that since he
had been before the public he had done
hislevel Ses, TO show his patriotic attach
ment for Boston. Sullivan then had n
thee round bout with Mike Donovan, of
New York, and q set.to with Steve Tay-
Tor, Of Jersey city. The belt is valued
at 5000 and sullivan realized about
$1,000 out Of The benefit. All this took
place in Boston which claims to be par
o.CcCl'eBcs the seat OF American culture
and refinement. Simon Cameron re-
marked on an interesting occasion that
'this IS III OF a country any way, :"
and this Boston performance shows that
his estimate Of its capabilities was
correct.

WILLIAM Il. HART, who was nOElin-
ated for State Treasurer by Quay's Con-
vention at Harrisburg on Wednesday,
has rendered himself amenable to the
laws against cOrrupting nominating Con-
ventIOns. The Philadelphia papers of
Sunday last announced that the delegates
from that city to the State Convention
had each received a circular letter "with
the compliments Of William b. Hart, "
and railroad ticket TO Harrisburg and
return. In regard to this bold and i'm
prudent defiance of the Constitution the
Record of that city says Apart from
the indelicacy If such proceeding, the
Constitution of Pennsylvania prescrIbes
an oath for every State official, who be-
fore entering upon his duties must swear
that be has not given or promised any
money or ''other UulltuJle HjnQs'' for the
sake Of securing his nomination or cleo
tion. If it tee true that Captain Hart
has been making a general distribution
of railroad passes among tie delegates
70 the Convention charged with nomi-
mating a State Treasurer he has made
his candidacy for that position lmpossi-
ble. The SheTiffs elected in two OF
three counties of the State have been
prosecuted and turned out OF office for
doing in an other way Just what Hart is
charged with having done. He has
made no denial OF the charge and if he
is elected he may have peck OF trouble
in getting possession of the Office.

THE War Department received a
telegram last week from the Governor
Of Colorado announcing the uprising OF
the White River Utes, rear Meeker,
Col, ard asking the assistance of the
United States troops in suppressing it.
The telegram has been forwarded to
General Crook, who has command OF
that military department, for such ac-
tion as he deems advisable. He has full
power TO act in the matter and will send
trOoDs to the scene of trouble if thought
necessary. There are plenty of troops
just north and south of Meeker, and
they can be utilized on short notice.
The Utes are regarded as a dangerous
tribe, and an uprising among them may
prove serious unless promptly sup
pressed.

The Allentown Convention.


There is not, so far as we know,
Democratic paper in the State that does
not favor the adoption of resolution
by the State Convention which will
meet at Allentown on the 3Ist instant,
endorsing in emphatic terms the admin
istIatiOn OF President Cleveland. 1t
could not we'll be otherwise in view of
the uuselfish devotion he has shown to
the discharge of the duties of his high
Office, as we'll as the acknowledged abili.
ty and integrity he has displayed in ad-
ministeriug the affairs of the govern
ment. No man questions Mr.. Cleve-
lands honesty or doubts his patriotic
determination to take care that the Re-
public shall receive no detriment during
the tour years for which he was chosen
by the people TO be their Chief NIagis-
trate. More than two wears and half
of that time have expired and SO well
and satisfactorily has he executed the
weighty trust reposed in him that his
denomination, if he lives, is a matter of
absolute certainty. The name of no
other man as a candidate against him
before the National Convention next
year IS now seriously thought OF or men
toned. Should the Allentown Conven-
tion, therefore, be content with an
endorse meut OF his administration, or
should it not In addition thereto formal
~ and in distinct terms express Itself in
favor of his denomination ? Our we'll
settled conviction is that it should. 1t
may be said that this would be prema-
ture and that the appropriate time for
such action Will be next year. Judging,
however, from the tone OF Democratic
sentiment throughout the State which
is not at auhkely TO undergo any change
before the meeting of the National Con.
veutIon, why should not that be done
uotc by the Democrats Of this State
which is certain 20 be done by the De
/ mocracy Of dV ,he States in Convention
assembled in lSSS. IL IS true that the
/ Democrats of Pennsylvania may not bs
able to give Mr.. Cleveland her eIectora
vote, but for all that, their voice is still
potent with the Democracy ofthe Union
| The Allentown Convention ought, there
| fore, IN our judgement to have the cour
/ age of its well settled convictions ant
! in the platform it will adopt PAN
itself sqarely in favor of Mr.. Clevelandi
denomination.

Grosvenor, a son of the Duke OF West
minister, the wealthiest man in England.
who eXsTted all the influence Of his rank
and money TO secure the election Of his
son. MI. Bruuuer, the successful can
didate, in an address TO tie electors of
the district on Monday, said you
have won a victory for Mr.. Gladstone
for ireland. The issue between the
classes and the masses has been made
absolutely clear for the first time. The
significance of this message Of peace to
Ireland it is impossible to oyerate. -
The result Of the election is regarded as
n crushing blow 10 the Tory administra.
tion Of Lord Salisbury ard an omen OF
his speedy downfall. The Nationalists
in Dublin and throughout Ireland are
jubllant over the Victory, and declare
that the government cannot carry out
its threat TO proclaim the National
League in the face OF a defeat which
completely chgnges the political situa-

1t is understood that the sub-commit-

lacked the signature of George Handy

rendering it void and of no effect, would
